IxD and Assistive Technology
I – like many – believe that The Chaser has passed its use by date. Not that the creators aren’t filled with talent and ideas, but the format is starting to feel a little tired and more forced with each episode. With the final airing …
I always thought it was the duty of a journalist to report on the news, not to invent it. I understand that with the editorial slant that each media organisation puts on their own paper/television channel/radio broadcast, that the details can be spun, muddied, embellished, …
Newtown in Sydney is notoriously bad for parking. It’s the number one reason I don’t bother with owning a car. If by nothing short of a miracle you manage to find somewhere to place your car, you’re then never totally sure what you’ll find when …
If you’ve read even a small number of the rants on this blog, you’ll know that I’ve pretty much given up the DJing thing. There are very few occasions when I’ll happily dust off my wax and do a set nowadays. However, I’ve been hit …
It’s no huge leap technologically, but I’m quite happy with my small, hand crafted site for Concrete. I’m really starting to enjoy CSS and coded this little fella myself, with the exception of the great Fancybox jQuery script for the gallery. Take a look around …
It has been quite a while (19 months to be exact), but the second Concrete is finally locked in. What was initially supposed to be a monthly event, quickly ran into venue problems and was then put on the shelf whilst I got into university …
Lately, I’ve been digging through the CDs I used to have on high rotation during high school – early Doves and Elbow featured heavily on that list – and ripping them onto my hard drive. Listening to Doves’ Lost Souls again, I was reminded of …
I had a bunch of fun playing at Flunked on Thursday night, so I thought I’d throw my set online. It’s been a really long time since I’ve put up a mix, and whilst this is a bit of a mash in places, there are …
I stopped in at CarriageWorks this morning to de-brief the last Finders Keepers markets and have a talk about the next one coming up in December. Chatting about the other spaces within the venue, we went for a bit of a wander to check them …
This marks the very final part of Semester 1, 2009 for me. We were given the option of completing our documentation for Multimedia Authoring 1 with either a video or website, which were due today. I chose the latter because of the non-action required for …
Over the past couple of months, I’ve upgraded both Pro Tools and Ableton Live (both now in their 8th release), thanks to my K. Rudd bonus cheque. It’s only now that I’ve finished uni for a few weeks that I’ve had a chance to really …
Code Development Well, against all odds, it would seem my final coding project is complete (or as complete as I’m willing to make it – adding more code is now making it all very unstable). In the end, there was a bit of a struggling …
Development Digital Video 1 was a subject which it was not a requirement to write a weekly journal. However, I found that this is a process that helped me throughout my work, so I kept completing them anyway. This was until a couple of weeks …
Work For the final week, I covered a lot more ground than I would have liked to (such is the way with most of my projects this semester). I realised when attempting to use a CG texture to wrap my major elements that it would …
